I am a huge fan of world-building. I love doing it in my own books, and I love reading it done well.

The fountain of youth is like the monkey's paw in the W. W. Jacobs story. It never ends well.

Life on Mars would be awesome! Even single-celled life, although I admit that in my heart of hearts, I want it to be the barge-people of the canals.

You know how everyone - there's this maxim that we all become our mother or we all become our parents. And, generally, I really wouldn't mind becoming my mother. I really like her, so I wouldn't mind becoming her. But I definitely need to edit her.

I like stories where there's a center that's mushy and complicated.
added almost choose days few knows liked name nobody recently remembered wikipedia
If he could go back, choose another career, my father would have liked to have been an environmentalist of some kind, which is why he'd really like to be remembered for something almost nobody knows he did: naming Earth Day. It agitated him to look up Earth Day on Wikipedia recently and not see his name anywhere. So a few days ago, I added it.
